Wikinews:Arbitration Committee/Elections July 2008/Brian Questions

Question from Anonymous101: You are not currently editing that reguarly. Will you have time to deal with the long, complex arbitration cases that could (but will hopefully not) occur? Anonymous101 (talk) 11:14, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have been withholding from answering this question - due to the fact that I was watching myself to see how much time I have - and visit and check on wikinews. I do check in most days - and still read the mailing lists etc. Yes I do have the time - and should a case come up - I will be able to get involved.

Question from GW_Simulations: There has recently been some controversy on the English Wikipedia about the extent of ArbCom's power and influence. Do you feel that it is ever ArbCom's place to dictate policies, even against community consensus, or just to make rulings on individual cases, on a case-by-case basis? I am asking this question to all candidates --GW_Simulations_{User Page | Talk} 11:25, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

individual cases, on a case by case basis, is my way of liking things personally - and that is what works best on Wikinews I believe Brian | (Talk) | ^{New Zealand Portal} 18:57, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
